My new stripe tote by Roberta Pieri, from Robertina collection, is the key piece of my summer holiday style. Thanks to the right clothes and - even more - to the right accessories, we can bring the holiday mood with us, even in the city. Thumbs up, then, for light summer clothes - like my Asos linen midi red skirt with pocket detail and my colorful cotton shirt with a parrot print - and for simple yet chic accessories, just like pearls (either faux, like my Zara necklace, or real, like on my gold ring), a pair of soft leather slingbacks from Le Silla, big diva sunglasses, and a roomy, lightweight bag in a classic black and white stripes print and handcrafted leather handles and details. I am in love with my Robertina bag, in Xlarge size, from the very talented designer Roberta Pieri, this brand from Tuscany produces high quality Made in Italy bags using only the best materials, these pieces of exquisite elegance are effortlessly chic and meant to last for a long time.

Chanel Summer 2015 makeup collection: Méditerranée

Today you can see my choices from Chanel summer 2015 makeup collection, Méditerranée, inspired by the vivid colors of the Mediterranean sea. As a makeup addict, I can't help buying something from the seasonal collection of my favorite makeup brands. I was super impressed with the lipsticks this time, but got quickly obsessed with Chanel Lumière d'été Illuminating Powder, in a beautiful golden bronze color. This is my favorite item from this Chanel summer collection. I also picked up three nail polish colors out of the four available colors, only because the other one, Coquelicot, was a simple red and I have so many already.

GMYLE folio case for MacBook Air review

Gmyle folio case for MacBook Air review, because how toprotect your beloved Apple MacBook is one of the most heartfelt problems for a laptop owner. Today - also to celebrate the first day Apple Watch is sold in Italy - we talk about hi-tech: I write many posts of this fashion blog on my MacBook Air 13" and I have to say after looking for the bestMacBook hard cases, I have realized I love the design of my aluminium case MacBook too much to cover it completely with a plastic case. Moreover, I heard sometimes hard cases can cause scratching when not removed properly and I am not the most patient person in the world. So, I normally use my MacBook without a case, always storing it and carrying it around in a padded sleeve and treating it like my precious little child. I have found another great, elegant and simple way to protect my MacBook in this leather Folio case, found on GMYLE, a great webshop selling gadgets for smartphones, tablets and laptops as well as electronics, where Gmyle stands for "Gadgets that Make your Life Easier". This webshop has a wide selection of Apple oriented gadgets, so I decided to make my life easier ;-).

Shopping is my cardio oversize t-shirt and Zara jeggings

Shopping is my cardio workout ! My new t-shirt says it right, since everytime I go out for a shopping spree I walk so much and I enter so much shops, it's a kind of sport that doesn't help my wallet, but that helps me to keep me in shape !. In today's look I am wearing jeggings - a hybrid between jeans and leggings - so comfortable, I have got these high waisted Zara ones in different colors. An everyday outfit, with a mixture of casual and trendy elements. I am pleased to show you another beautiful necklace from italian brand SimonaB Bijoux - whenever I wear pieces from this brand - just like this one and that one - I get many compliments, these creations are awesome !. I played with blue color also with my other accessories, also with my Zara clutch and my brand new Nando Muzi slingbacks, in blue suede. This lovely light ethnic print jacket isn't Stella Jean but it's a low cost purchase made at Pimkie.

Asos deep v neck floral jacquard dress for a daytime wedding

A floral jacquard dress for a daytime wedding and a lot of patience are the ingredients of today's look. I wore this deep v neckline skater dress with high low hem to a classic italian wedding and I still feel sore after spending too much time sat at the table eating. I am a fan of small weddings with few guests but this one was really big, it lasted too long and when I got back home I was exhausted. My elegant outfit was simple and fresh, with this slightly iridescente Asos collection dress and my Le Silla slingbacks. I wore a gold necklace with amethyst charms and as bag I was carrying a very small clutch for the venue, but in these pics you see my green crossbody bag, much more comfortable and roomy, that kept it inside until we arrived to the venue ;).

A kimono jacket is a fashion must have, mine has a rose print

A Kimono jacket is no doubt one of this season's fashion must haves, so it couldn't be missing on my fashion blog. These jackets or cardigans, inspired by traditional japanese garments, are lightweight, come in beautiful, colorful prints and can be dressed up or down, giving a special twist even to a basic outfit. In today's look I show you a simple way to wear a rose print kimono jacket: on a white blouse and skinny jeans. I am a huge fan of floral prints, and being a lover of red I couldn't help buying this Ax Paris kimono jacket I found on Asos. A casual look perfect for daytime, with my red adidas Supercolors- the match sneakers with jeans is back after a more eccentri look with a skirt - and my small Givenchy Antigona bag.

Vita Liberata: how to get a tan quickly and safely with self tanner

How to get a tan quickly and safely ? This is the question many of us ask, and surely, one of the answers is: using self tanner !. I have to confess I have always dreamt about having a natural golden glow for summer in no time, but usually I gave up on self tanners because I was afraid I'd get too orange, I wasn't keen on the smell of all self-tanners and also I was afraid my tan would look too fake and spotty. This, at least, until I heard about Vita Liberata. This irish brand is said to produce the best self tanners out there, they created the first odourless tan in 2007, all their products don't leave any strong smell on your skin and have the purest ingredients in the tanning world. Following the right self tanning application tips, and using the amazing Vita Liberata products (you can find them at Sephora), the dream of having a beautiful, glowing tan that fades gradually just like a real tan becomes true.

Gipsy style fashion outfit with a chiffon maxi dress

A gipsy inspiration for today's look on my fashion blog, featuring a chiffon maxi dress with an eye catching pink leopard print and a wonderful necklace - more like a piece of art - from SimonaB Bijoux. I really stepped out of my comfort zone with this dress, this time, even tho my comfort zone is very large - you must know by now that I like to experiment with different styles. I usually prefer other kind of dresses, but this maxi chiffon dress caught my attention and I thought "why not" ?. I imagined myself as a gipsy princess, with my beautiful SimonaB Bijoux neck piece made of different stones, my dress floating in the wind, bangles and charm bracelets from Luca Barra. I wore metallic pink slingbacks and my Chanel 2.55 caviar leather bag to soften the boho style of this outfit with something more bon ton.

Fringe trend: western chic style with Paramita Chibum dress

The fringe trend and touches of yellow, one of the hottest fashion colors for Summer, in this urban look with touches of western chic style, today on my fashion blog. I had fun matching this lovely Paramita Chibum dress with geometric print with my suede fringed vest. I had already introduced the ethnic and fun mood of this brand. Accessories always play an important role in my outfits, and I was wearing a gorgeous statement necklace from SimonaB Bijoux that, for colors of the stones and the shape, reminds me of a western style jewelry piece. An eye catching work of art, just like all the handmade necklaces from this italian brand I love so much !. Yellow caged sandals from Le Silla added a glamour and modern touch, together with my Rebecca Minkoff leopard mini MAC bag.
